Using the Message Service
This section provides information on how to create, send,
receive and read messages using the handset. With the
handset, you can send and receive not only text
messages but also messages with pictures, sounds or
videos. Pictures taken and sounds and video clips
recorded with the handset can be sent to other handsets
or e-mail addresses for viewing if they have the same
media playback capability.
Message Types Available with
the Handset
With the handset, three types of messages are available.
SMS (Short Message Service): This service enables
you to send text only messages of up to 1024 characters
to other users. You can send or receive messages even if
you are talking on the handset. Also text templates are
available to help you compose messages.
MMS (Multimedia Message Service): Your handset is
already enabled to deal with file attached messages. You
can send messages with graphical images, photographs,
sounds or video clips attached, and receive Browser
(WAP) alerts.
E-Mail: This function enables you to directly access the
E-mail messaging service for your Internet service
provider. You can also send or receive files through the
11-68
service. For information on how to set up your E-mail
function, refer to "Setting an Account" on page 15-158.
When sending an SMS message, messages
exceeding 160 characters are divided during
the sending process. If the recipient uses a
compatible handset, divided messages are
recombined and delivered as one message. If
sent to a non-compatible handset, messages
are divided into 152 character lots and
delivered separately.
When sending an MMS message, the size of
the message that can be sent is up to 295
kbytes.
Some messaging functions may not be
available, depending on the network service
you use. If you experience any problems using
these services, contact your service provider
for details.
